UFDI's Dr. Laura Jacobsen and Dr. Sarah Westen's article in Nature Reviews Endocrinology is out today! Their article emphasizes that the language used by healthcare professionals when discussing diabetes can significantly impact patients' emotional well-being, self-care, and health outcomes. It advocates for person-first, respectful, and non-judgmental language to reduce stigma and foster more collaborative, empowering relationships between healthcare professionals and people living with a chronic condition, such as diabetes. The authors argue that even small shifts in phrasing can help break cycles of shame and disengagement, ultimately improving care and trust.
